Ear pinning surgery is a surgical procedure performed to correct the appearance of the ears. Prominent ear, also known as “bat ears,” is a deformity that occurs as a result of underdeveloped ear cartilage or abnormal growth of the ear cartilage. Because the deformity can affect a person’s psychological health, ear pinning surgery is often performed for aesthetic reasons.

Kepçe kulak operasyonu; kulakların görünümünü düzeltmek için yapılan bir cerrahi işlemdir. İşlem sırasında aşağıdaki adımlar izlenir;
Anesthesia: The surgery can be performed under local anesthesia or general anesthesia, depending on the patient’s age, health status, and the surgeon’s preference.
Surgical incisions: The skin behind the ear is cut to reach the ear cartilage. Surgical incisions are usually made behind the ear so that the scars are less visible after the surgery.
Cartilage reshaping: The ear cartilage is reshaped so that the ear pinna gains a natural appearance. The ear cartilage is shaped by cutting, bending, or stitching it with special surgical instruments.
Stitches: After the cartilage is reshaped, the surgeon places the stitches. The stitches can be placed on the ear cartilage and/or on the skin behind the ear.
Bandaging: The ears are wrapped with bandages for several days after the surgery. The bandaging process helps to maintain the new shape of the ears and speeds up the healing process.
Ear pinning surgery usually takes about 1-2 hours, and the patient can be discharged from the hospital on the same day. The recovery period typically lasts 1-2 weeks, and patients can usually return to their daily activities within a short period of time. However, it is important to follow your doctor’s instructions.
